Nolan and I have our bags packed for the weekend. We're driving all the way to Tennessee to spend a couple days at Gatlinburg. I used to go to Dollywood a lot when I was a kid, when my family lived in Indiana and Kentucky and it was just a couple hours away. This trip will be around 8 hours and we'll switch back and forth (though I'm sure Nolan will do most of the driving).

We won't be home for Easter, but that's nothing new. Instead, we all got together for my mother's birthday this week and enjoyed the time we have together.

But if we did stay home for Easter weekend, I'm sure I would have to pull a rabbit-shaped Peep out of my hat, because I have been LAZY lately with baking! So here's a simple, easy, non-recipe for a Peep-flavored milkshake for you to sip with your nieces and nephews and the love of your life this weekend!
